Sunrise at the Top of Wave Rock (Hyden Rock), Hyden, Western Australia
Wave Rock is a natural rock formation that is shaped like a tall breaking ocean wave. The wave forms the north side of a solitary hill, which is known as Hyden Rock. Wave Rock and Hyden Rock are part of Hyden Wildlife Park.
A wall lies above Wave Rock about halfway up Hyden Rock and follows the contours of the wall. It collects and funnels rainwater to a storage dam. The wall and dam were constructed in December 1928 by the Public Works Department for the original settlers of East Karlgarin District. Both were renovated in 1951 to increase water capacity for the Hyden Township

Capturing the Majestic Sunrise at Wave Rock, Hyden, Western Australia
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This breathtaking print showcases the awe-inspiring beauty of sunrise atop Wave Rock in Hyden, Western Australia. The natural rock formation resembles a towering breaking ocean wave and forms the northern side of the solitary hill known as Hyden Rock. Nestled within Hyden Wildlife Park, this iconic landmark is a testament to nature's artistic prowess. The image reveals a wall that gracefully follows the contours of Wave Rock about halfway up Hyden Rock. This architectural marvel was constructed by the Public Works Department in 1928 to collect and channel rainwater into a storage dam. Originally serving the settlers of East Karlgarin District, it underwent renovations in 1951 to increase water capacity for the growing township of Hyden. As sunlight bathes this enchanting landscape with its golden hues, clouds dance above verdant vegetation and majestic trees. The scene is not only visually captivating but also holds cultural significance for local tribes such as Ballardong people who consider Wave Rock sacred and believe it was created by their mythical Rainbow Serpent. Artie Photography has masterfully captured this mesmerizing view that invites us to immerse ourselves in nature's splendor while appreciating both its natural wonders and human ingenuity. This stunning print serves as an invitation to explore Western Australia's rich landscapes and learn from its diverse cultural heritage.
